Hockey royalty was never supposed to have secrets. But Sidney Crosby has one. At the end of his rookie season in 2006, before the championships, before the dynasty, before the captaincy truly defined him, Sidney Crosby became a father. Her mother left before the ink dried on the birth certificate. From that moment on, it was just the two of them. Raised between locker rooms, road trips, and Stanley Cup celebrations, she grew up surrounded by hockey's biggest names. Marc-André Fleury taught her how to skate. Evgeni Malkin taught her Russian swear words. The Pittsburgh Penguins raised her almost as much as her father did. But she never wanted to be known as Sidney Crosby's daughter. So when she graduates and takes a media job with the San Jose Sharks, she does it quietly. New city. New life. No famous last name attached. What she doesn't expect is the Sharks' newest star rookie. Macklin Celebrini. The first overall pick. The future of the franchise. And a guy who grew up idolizing Sidney Crosby. At first they're just friends. Late night food runs, team dinners, inside jokes with Will Smith. But somewhere during Macklin's rookie season, friendship turns into something neither of them planned. And she hasn't told him the truth. Because falling for a rookie is complicated enough. Falling for someone who worships your dad? That's a disaster waiting to happen.

A transfer from Alabama, Jolie is everything Southern: boots and pearls, Sunday manners, sweet tea in her water bottle, and fire in her soul. Off the court, she's charm and grace. On it, she's a sniper-cold, focused, and unstoppable. As summer workouts heat up and the pressure of their senior year looms, Paige finds herself drawn to Jolie in ways she never expected. Jolie's world is slower, softer, filled with sayings Paige has to ask twice to understand.

This summer, Paige learns that sometimes the biggest game you play isn't on the court-it's in the heart. And Jolie Mae Whitaker? She might just be the one to change everything. ⸻
